A little brown

I haven't posted anything yarny in a while so here's a new shawl on the hook. I don't know why I picked brown, but I felt the need to take a break from all the color that's been going on here lately. Something neutral, to wear with jeans and boots and a white tee shirt for when the weather changes (which won't be for months, but that might be how long it takes to finish it).

Here's something else brown.....

Whaaaaat!!!

Luna has a new friend! I picked him up a few days ago, and he is settling in very quickly. I'm relieved to say that he appears very happy and well adjusted. We have all been taking turns playing and cuddling and passing him around like a new toy. He's an 8 week old Boston Terrier. I have been looking for one ever since we lost our funny little Chewy last year. Name changes for this little guy pop up hourly, with suggestions like "Bacon"(who doesn't like bacon?) to "A glutton for punishment"(that from my oldest daughter who has inherited the sarcastic gene. It's apparently passed down on the mother's side, plus she enjoys reminding me of Luna's antics these past eight months).
However, "Charlie Brown" is sticking. Sometimes you just know.

OH MY LORD, he's soooooo cute!!! I'd love a good snuggle with him for a few minutes! I love this colors, and I think Charlie Brown is a good name. Luna looks so sweet just watching him play with the toy. I bet they will become good buddies. I'm happy for you and totally jealous! Lots of pictures please!
